This week on Whatcha Makin', Alex Duffey and Alex Adams dive deep into the crucial world of retail partnerships! Learn the ins and outs of connecting with vendors, from warm introductions at networking events to effective cold pitches. They'll break down different partnership types like consignment vs. wholesale, discuss display strategies, and share essential tips on managing inventory and ensuring you get paid.
Tune in to hear what they're making (from AWFS Fair gifts and urn boxes to custom keychains and new 3D printer setups), what's "breaking" in their shops (hello, stubborn Bambu A1 and tricky filament!), and their latest sales strategies from successful markets. Plus, get inspired by incredible woodworking and maker projects from their "Whatcha Watchin'" segment, featuring everything from hidden shop beer coolers to functional scale models and hilarious shop reels.
If you're a maker looking to expand your reach and successfully sell your creative products, this episode is packed with invaluable advice on navigating vendor relationships and making money!
